Turkish e-commerce growth is exceeding market expectations. Data from the Turkish Online Retailers Association (ETİD) shows that the total e-commerce market size is projected to surpass 3 trillion lira in 2025. The fourth quarter alone saw nearly 1 trillion lira in transaction volume, with November alone reaching approximately 500 billion lira. Based on the current growth momentum, the market size is expected to reach 5 trillion lira by 2026.

With the accelerated integration of e-commerce and electronic exports, a large number of small and medium-sized sellers are entering the market, making cross-border commodity circulation more active. Chinese sellers have a clear advantage in categories such as apparel, consumer electronics, and small appliances. On local platforms like Hepsiburada and Trendyol, as well as Amazon Turkey, the exposure and conversion rates of Chinese brands are increasing. Turkish e-commerce is entering a new phase of intense competition, and "logistics stability" is gradually becoming a key variable affecting seller performance.

Turkey's growth is strong, but logistical pain points are becoming more prominent.

Entering the Turkish market is not difficult for sellers, but maintaining a good fulfillment experience requires a more mature logistics system. Sellers currently face the following common challenges:

First, frequent adjustments to customs clearance policies lead to inconsistent efficiency in traditional channels. Cross-border sellers, seeking to minimize uncertainty, prefer the more stable two-way customs clearance model.

Second, increasing pressure on delivery times. Rapid market growth and platform demands for faster logistics mean delivery delays negatively impact ratings and can weaken repeat purchases.

Third, strong demand for electronics from Turkish consumers, coupled with stringent requirements for transporting products with batteries or Wi-Fi, makes traditional shipping routes prone to restrictions or random inspections, affecting sellers' listing strategies.

Fourth, as businesses expand, sellers seek to outsource labeling, packaging, and inventory management more efficiently to logistics service providers to simplify supply chain management.

In this environment, dedicated Turkish shipping lines with self-operated last-mile delivery, the ability to handle a wide range of product categories, and stable customs clearance capabilities have become a core requirement for sellers.

Key Requirements for "Mature Turkey Dedicated Lines" by Cross-Border Sellers

When choosing a Turkey route, sellers generally focus on several core points:

Stable customs clearance capabilities are essential, especially maintaining timely delivery during peak seasons;

Last-mile delivery must be controllable, particularly during major promotional periods, as only self-operated delivery can effectively avoid congestion and delays;

Broad product category coverage is crucial, including general goods, electronic products with batteries, and products with WiFi functionality;

The order processing chain must be more aligned with cross-border business, such as labeling, standardized packaging, and transit warehousing.

Behind these requirements, sellers essentially want to mitigate logistical risks and improve operational efficiency in a rapidly growing market.
